These days, the maids working in the huge Golden Palace have been really offended.
Although their life has not been easy since they were selected by Yin Lisabei to work in the Golden Palace, this empress, who has always been vigorous and resolute, treats her subordinates very harshly in both life and work, so the servants responsible for serving her have never been
They were all under tremendous work pressure and never had even a moment of respite.
Now that Queen Elizabeth Yin is ill and bedridden, they still dare not slack off in their work, but are a little more nervous.
The news of the Queen's illness was not known to the people of Nali, but for some reason it spread like wildfire among the New Party, the Griffin Party and the ministers she appointed. In the past few days, ministers have been writing letters to test the Queen's current status.
, but Yin Lisabai, who was bedridden, asked the maid to give the answer orally.
Perhaps because of handwriting and efficiency, or perhaps because of the unprecedented bloody liquidation of members of the Witch Research Society across the country since that day, the people below smelled opportunities from such clues and were ready to take action.
It's still snowing in Nali today, and the heat magic in the warm room in the Golden Palace is constant day and night. The maids who serve in shifts come and go, all just for the pale Queen of Nali, Elizabeth Yin, who is wearing gold and white pajamas at the moment.
At this time, two maids were sitting beside her bed, reading letters and opinions from ministers to her. Yin Lisabai, who was in poor health, also steeled herself to dictate her reply.
"Back to Rybak, now that he has decided to continue to serve as finance minister, he should start to work on reforms. He must be measured and not offend them all. In the areas where he starts, he can first consider the ones I mentioned before."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The maid below was concentrating on transcribing Yin Lisabai's words, until two more maids walked in at the door, carrying two plates of hot food.
"Your Majesty, it's time for lunch."
"Put it down first, I have no appetite now."
"You didn't eat anything yesterday, Your Majesty."
The pale Yin Lisabai held her head against the bed and gasped twice. She had been feeling a little hazy these past few days. Ever since she fainted after hearing the bad news about Fisher, she could only devote all her little energy to
When it comes to work, I don’t even dare to fall asleep, because as soon as I have some free time, the fact that Fisher left will linger like a nightmare.
Her tears were about to dry up. Several times in her midnight dreams, she seemed to have dreamed that Fisher was back. But when she woke up, the nothingness around her still reminded her of the cruelty of reality and the sense of gap.
It made Yin Lisabai feel quite desperate, as if it was going to drain her completely, making it difficult for her to face it.
But there is such a big country in front of her. Her younger brothers and sisters are still young, and Yin Sabel is still overseas. Once she lets it go, the country she has worked so hard to capture and all her ideals will come to nothing.
It's definitely not what Fisher wants to see.
"woo woo woo woo"
She covered her face with some dizziness, not knowing whether she was panting or still sobbing, and let out a little fragile sob. But after a long time, only her hoarse voice and trembling shoulders conveyed her emotions at the moment.
The maids all lowered their heads sadly, feeling somewhat empathetic and unwilling to speak any more.
God has given human beings the ability to empathize with others, and has given them magnificent imagination and unparalleled ability to unite.
During the time spent with Yin Lisabai day and night, these personal maids certainly understood what kind of person Fisher was in the photo that was always on the eucalyptus to His Majesty, and how it must have felt to lose him forever.
It was heartbreaking, and this was one of the few things that Lisa Bai Yin cared about. How could she not be so desperate?
After a long time, Yin Lisabai's hoarse voice came from the messy golden hair, which made the maid below show some joy.
"Give me lunch."
"Yes, Your Majesty, please use it"
Just when the maid was about to step forward, another maid behind her with an anxious face suddenly walked in quickly, attracting the attention of everyone in the room. The maid who was about to bring the meal was quite surprised.
She glared reproachfully at the rash guy, fearing that the queen would lose her precious appetite due to this sudden episode.
The maid who broke in was panting a little tiredly, as if she had run a long way here.
"Your Majesty, Congressman Trundle, the Member of Parliament for the Western District, wants to see Your Majesty."
Yin Lisabai's long golden hair fell a little, and her brain, which had not replenished energy for a long time, was running awkwardly. She could not remember for a long time who this person was, or the one who copied her words next to her. Yin Lisabai's most trusted maid spoke.
, said,
"Your Majesty, this congressman is a member of the New Party. He is neither above nor below in the New Party. He is just a playboy who likes to have fun. But one thing is that he had a good relationship with Fisher when he was studying at the Royal Academy. I heard that he rented a house with Fisher at that time.
Live in one house."
Yin Lisabai's golden prosthetic eyes trembled, she smiled sarcastically and said,
"If you want to borrow Fisher's connections, you have to come early. What is he doing here now? If you dare to use Fisher to make demands on me, I will twist off his head and feed it to my dogs."
The maid heard Yin Lisabai's murderous words in front of her and quickly raised her hands, but because she was still panting, the words she wanted to say instantly choked her throat and made her cough.
"Ahem! No, Your Majesty, he is not here to make requests. He is here to say that he has news about Fisher. He wants to take Your Majesty to a place and tell you."
After Yin Lisabai, who was leaning on the bedside, heard this sentence, her stiff joints twisted a little bit, causing her to raise her head, and her pair of shining golden eyes looked at the person in front of her with a sense of oppression.
A maid who came to deliver a message,
"what did he say?"
"Drive! Drive!"
The winter in Nali is covered with snow. The Golden Palace, which has been closed for a long time, actually opened its door for the first time today. Several golden cars pulled by white horses slowly drove out of the palace. In Nali today,
Only one person can ride in such a carriage again, and that is the noble Queen.
The signal of the Queen's travel was so obvious that many of the spies sent by the ministers to watch at the gate of the Golden Palace changed their faces and turned around to report the news to their bosses. I believe that soon, the news of the Queen's serious illness will disappear.
The attack will be defeated on its own, but that will have to wait until Yin Lisabai reappears in front of the ministers.
But at this moment, Trundle, who was wearing a heavy black trench coat in front of the Golden Palace, still had his golden hair combed back. Since Fisher left Nali, his complexion seemed to have improved a lot, and he was not as weak as before.
, because the Pink Pavilion was confiscated and closed, he probably no longer has the opportunity to rescue those ill-fated ladies.
He was riding a horse and waiting at the door. When he saw the golden carriage pulled by the white horse slowly driving out, his expression immediately changed and he pulled the horse to the side of the road as if to please. Waiting for the carriage to stop beside him, he immediately
Prepare to get off your horse and salute respectfully,
"His Majesty"
As a result, there was just a movement, the curtain of the carriage was not opened, and only an extremely dull female voice came from it,
"Take me directly to the destination you mentioned. If you dare to cheat, your head will fall on the ground tonight."
Trundle was sweating on his forehead. It seemed that the queen had not said what kind of reward he would get if it was true. But if it was false, he would probably be reunited with his long-dead ancestors in the evening. This made him
He pointed to the road in the distance with a smile and said,
"Don't dare, Your Majesty, I have really received the news about Fisher. The place you want to go is not far from the city, I will take you there and it will be easy!"
After that, Trundle rode off and headed in a certain direction in the city.
The news of the Queen's carriage had already been heard when it came out. Although the Golden Palace did not notify the preparations for road closure out of urgency, many pedestrians and horses on the road immediately automatically stopped when they saw the golden carriage from a distance.
They spread out to make way for the road, so the distance was not long. Lisa Bai used some food in the car. I don’t know if it was food or the news about Fisher that was still uncertain. In short, she was in better spirits now.
Quite a few.
"Your Majesty, we are here."
Not long after, the carriage slowly stopped, and Trundle's voice came from outside. Elizabeth Yin also straightened her clothes and put on a black gauze hat, which covered most of her sickly appearance.
She refused the help of the maid next to her and got out of the car wearing pure black fur clothes. The golden guards following behind her surrounded the place. She turned around and saw that what appeared in front of her was an ordinary building in the city of Nali.
It's just a three-story house, but perhaps the one in front of you is a bit special because it is owned by an older lady named Martha, and the only tenant here is Fisher Beiner.
Vaders.
"What's Fisher's house doing here?"
After Fisher escaped from Nali and Yin Lisabai's search was fruitless, she ordered people to come here and take almost all of Fisher's things to the Golden Palace. In the end, nothing was found. She had the right to treat it as her own.
She kept it in her bedroom to see and think about it, and now, Trundle brought her here again.
Trundle bent down respectfully, looked at the golden knight following her and gave a forced laugh,
"Your Majesty, in any case, just come with me."
Yin Lisabai didn't speak, but the golden knight behind her took a step forward and prepared to draw his sword. Trundle was so frightened that his legs went weak and he sat down in the snow.
"Don't, don't, don't kill me!
It’s true that I didn’t lie to Your Majesty here!”
Seeing this, Elizabeth Yin raised her hand to tell the knight behind her to stop. She glanced at the cabin in front of her. Perhaps because she missed Fisher too much, she suddenly wanted to visit the place where he once lived.
"Okay, lead the way. Just take me wherever you want with a maid and a knight. The rest are waiting downstairs."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Hearing Lisa White's approval, Trundle quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead and got up from the ground. Only then did he admire Fisher for being able to deal with her in front of Lisa White for so many years.
, this is really not something ordinary people can do.
"Come this way, Your Majesty."
He knocked on the door and waited for a long time before the door slowly opened, revealing the cautious old man inside. Who else could it be if it wasn't Ms. Martha?
But since Fisher left, her dyed black hair seemed to have turned completely white again. Looking at the fight outside the door, she trembled with fright, but she still subconsciously looked at Yin Lisabai, who was shrouded in black.
The gift,
"Oh, Your Majesty, how are you doing today?"
"Ms. Martha."
Lisa Bai returned the favor for the first time, which frightened Ms. Martha even more. She was a little worried that Fisher was found, or that they were going to do something to her. She seemed to have heard that Fisher's child was being raped by Gold.
She was wanted by the palace, and this news kept her awake for several nights.
Fortunately, Trundle was nearby. Since Fisher left, he often came to look after Ms. Martha, which prevented her from collapse.
"Ms. Martha, Your Majesty wants to go to the room where Fisher lived before. You didn't put anything new in the room, right?"
"No! Absolutely not. I'm still waiting for Fisher to come back one day."
As she spoke, Ms. Martha realized that she had said something wrong again. She quickly covered her mouth and did not dare to say anything more. But fortunately, Lisa Bai still did not say anything.
"That's good, that's good, Your Majesty, please come with me. The room I want to take you to is Fisher's previous room."
Trundle walked into the rental house first, and Lisa White did not move. However, the sword-wielding knight behind him entered first, and Lisa White followed him and went upstairs with a maid.
Trundle opened the room first but did not go in. The knight was about to go in to search but was stopped by Elizabeth Yin. Her golden eyes glanced at Trundle up and down, and then she walked into Fisher on her own.
The room where I lived before.
The furnishings here have not changed at all. The careful Ms. Martha has preserved the appearance of Fisher's previous residence. The simple interior decoration is consistent with Fisher's character. He never spends too much in his life.
Perhaps the most valuable items in the whole room are the unused magic materials placed by the window sill and the books on the bookcase.
Yin Lisabai blankly scanned every inch and centimeter of this small room until her eyes fell on the end of the house. On the table placed in front of the window where he usually used for office work and research, she even
You can all think of how he wrote here.
If it is summer, the window in front of him must be open. He likes to get some air while studying, especially listening to the busy traffic and people talking outside. Of course, it is best when it rains, and he also likes the freshness after the rain.
, likes to listen to the music of raindrops hitting bricks; if it is winter, he will close the windows, and occasionally write some words on the white mist caused by the cold water vapor on the windows, through which he can clearly see the white snow and thousands of homes outside.
lights
Because these are his habits that Lisa Bai kept in mind when she was still around him. He would use a cigarette when he was thinking and researching in distress, but this habit did not exist around him, because every time he saw
His actions would cause him to cough slightly, and he would wisely stop and only pinch his palms instead.
She seemed to remember everything, as if the days before we parted were just yesterday and had never been far away.
"Your Majesty, please carefully check the position of the eucalyptus behind the table and pull the table out a little."
Trundle's voice came from outside the door again, and no one came in except Elizabeth Yin.
Hearing this, Lisa Bai Yin came to the side of the table and rejected the knight behind her who wanted to help. The golden color in her eyes flickered slightly, and then she pulled back the heavy table where Fisher worked with one hand.
distance.
Then, following Trundle's instructions, she looked inward along the small space separating the table from the wall, but saw nothing.
Just when Elizabeth Yin thought Trundle was playing tricks on her, she suddenly felt an extremely weak magic wave in it.
Her brows furrowed, and she stretched out her hand to confirm again, and then she was really sure that there was a very low-level space magic behind the table.
After studying for a while, she finally determined that it seemed to be a nested space magic.
The outer layer is space magic with one ring, and the magic fluctuation is almost negligible; but within the space magic is the real magic. The number of rings of that magic is very high, but because it is hidden in the outer space magic
And the magic fluctuations were hidden.
Just from this extremely sophisticated design, we can easily get a glimpse of Fisher's amazing magical talent. This little trick he designed obviously easily deceived the personnel sent by Elizabeth Yin to search here, even though she also sent a team at that time.
A magician came to eliminate the hidden magical compartments in the room, but only found a strange mask relic and a map of the Kadu Witch Tower here.
So, what exactly is in this magic that Fisher has hidden so deeply?
Yin Lisabai stretched out her hand to touch the outer magic, and the hidden high-circle magic in it transmitted waves. Inside, there was still a high-circle space magic, which was engraved on a pen hidden in the previous space magic.
Yin Lisabai held the pen and withdrew and sat on the bed next to her. She took a deep breath and slowly activated the magic on the pen.
"Buzz buzz"
To Lisa Bai's surprise, after the space magic on the pen was activated, there was no extremely precious treasure or relic hidden inside. What emerged from it were two stacks of neatly arranged envelopes.
When Lisa Bai saw the envelope, her eyes narrowed slightly subconsciously, as if she had seen something extremely shocking.
I saw two piles of envelopes in front of me. The pile on the left was entirely covered with gold letter paper. There were also scarlet red marks on the surface that had been opened. It was obvious that such a precious way of sending letters was not Fisher's style. That was
The letter I once sent him.
Yin Lisabai's fingers trembled slightly as she picked up the thick stack of envelopes. The last letter wishing him a happy birthday was still as eye-catching as before, and then went down one by one,
"Happy birthday to you", "I have returned to Nali safely", "Everything is well", "Party invitation", "Tea party invitation"
"Happy birthday, Fisher", "I have been assigned responsibilities by my father and I will leave Nali soon. I want to see you again. Can you give me one last chance to explain?"
"Fisher, don't ignore me", "I'm waiting for you in the college library, you must come", "Listen to my explanation, Fisher, please"
"Happy birthday, Fisher!", "I heard there is a machinery exhibition this weekend, how about we go together?", "I bought two clothes, one is floral and the other is pure white.
Which one do you think is better?", "Congratulations, the champion of the Griffin Tournament! I will always keep my promise to you~", "Formal invitation to your 18th birthday"
"Hello, I am Yin Lisabeth Gedelin from the Military Academy. I have some academic matters that I would like to communicate with you. Please reply to me." "About borrowing cards in the library, I have the authority granted by the principal alone.
If you don't mind, please feel free to use it." "I heard that you are interested in magic. It just so happens that Magic Director Hailsson and I have a tea party on the weekend. If you don't mind, you can come and have tea." "Sorry, I just found out last week
It’s your birthday, I hope you don’t mind my belated blessing.”
Yin Lisabai stared blankly at the well-preserved golden envelopes. From their first acquaintance to the present, every letter she sent to Fisher was here, and the magic that he had stored in the hidden part of the room was here.
No one can find out in it, and it is precisely the various things in this letter that prove everything they once loved each other.
In addition to this stack of golden envelopes, there was another stack of relatively simple white envelopes. Yin Lisabai's eyes turned pink little by little. She couldn't wait to pick up those letters because she recognized them at a glance.
The white letter is the one used by Fisher.
But the letters he sent to himself were all stored in the Golden Palace. What are these letters here?
"To Her Royal Highness the Princess, I am very surprised to receive your letter. I am aware of the academic issues you mentioned. I have not reviewed your original question, so"
The following word was misspelled, and Fisher seemed to have discovered it when he checked it later, so he scrapped everything that followed.
This was a reply to the letter I wrote in the beginning when I wanted to get to know him. The academic questions in it were just a cover. In the end, Fisher actually checked the information on the Military Academy and made a serious reply.
When Lisabeth Yin received the reply, it was an extremely perfect letter with very rigorous wording that made it impossible to find any faults. But here, Lisabeth Yin saw several "waste letters".
"To Elizabeth Yin, I have received the permission card you sent me. Thank you very much for your kindness. I hope to see you in the library this weekend."
There were no typos this time, but perhaps the older boy felt that "I hope to see Lisa Yin in the library" was too straightforward and embarrassing, so the letter was scrapped.
Well, the letter I received did not contain this sentence. It turned out that he wanted to see me at that time. What a pity. If he had written like this at that time, they would have been together for several months, right?
"To my dear Yin Lisabai, I think a white skirt looks better. From an aesthetic point of view, a floral skirt is more colorful, but you are already beautiful enough and no longer need matching clothes to stand out. With a simple dress
White is the most suitable color for clothing. From a historical perspective, Kadu advocates abstinence in black."
This letter was written too seriously. Is it unreasonable to be so strict even though the relationship has been confirmed? Fisher was obviously aware of this problem at the time, so he made this letter a new one.
It was useless. When Lisa Bai received it again later, his answer became just right again. He said,
"Sorry, because of your beauty, I think you are perfect no matter what you wear. If you insist on comparing which one is better, please wear it to school next week and let me see it with my own eyes."
Yin Lisabai held the letters that Fisher had revised and finalized before sending them out. Her nose felt sore for a moment, and she lowered her head unbearably.
The knight outside the door retreated downstairs unnaturally, and only the maid was left quietly guarding the door. Trundle outside the door had no idea what was going on inside, but he could faintly hear choking sounds.
There were not many subsequent letters, because after his eighteenth birthday, they separated, and Fisher no longer revised the letters as he had in the past, and was careful enough to confirm that they were perfect before sending them.
But even so, there were still several useless letters like this, and they were not long ago, just half a year ago.
"To Elizabeth Yin, I have received your birthday wishes and thank you for your letter. I am very sorry that I no longer address you as 'Your Highness'. I don't know whether you are happy or unhappy about this, but in short, I have
It’s been a long time since I’ve called your name like this, and just writing it down on paper makes me feel like I’m seeing you again after a long separation.”
"Since we separated, I have gone to Swali, Kadu, and recently to the Southern Continent. I have experienced many things. I have grown and changed to some extent, and I have a new perspective on some things. Especially
, Regarding my departure in the past, I suddenly feel that my departure at that time was so childish and immature. If I could "
As I write it here, there are large areas of alterations.
Even at the age of twenty-eight, even after they had been separated for a long time, he still seemed to be hesitating like himself.
This very close letter was not sent in the end. The letter sent to Yin Lisa Bai Yu was still as polite and lifeless as it was after they separated.
However, at the end of the letter, which was not sent to the end, and with large parts of the letter obliterated by hesitation, there was only one ending that was not obliterated by Fisher. It only read,
"No matter what, let's meet again."
The paper was crumpled little by little. Looking at the handwriting, Yin Lisabai didn't know until now that half a year ago, before she came up with such a shocking conspiracy, they had been so close for a moment and had such a beautiful possibility.
But now
"Who is Trundle? Who told you where these letters are?"
"that"
When the maid at the door saw Yin Lisabai asking questions outside, she finally got out of the way and allowed Trundle outside the door to walk out.
"It's Fisher."
Yin Lisabai turned her head blankly and murmured in disbelief,
"What did you say?"
"I'm really not kidding! It was him who sent the message. This guy hid his letters with you so deeply. Apart from him, no one knows that there are also records of his relationship with you. I mean, Your Majesty, that, is
Fisher asked me to come."
"He's alive! Where is he? Why didn't he come to see me? What happened after he had a conflict with the Witch Research Association that night?"
"I don't know, he didn't say anything, and I don't know what happened to him before."
Lisa Yin in the room looked with her golden eyes at Trundle who raised his hands in surrender outside the door. After making sure that he was not lying, she sat on the bed again and remained stunned for a long time without saying a word.
"But it's not without reason that Your Majesty asked me to show you these letters. He seems to have some difficulties that need to be solved now, and these difficulties are not something you can help with."
"He just said that he has not forgotten his promise to you and that he will come back to Nali one day."
Elizabeth Yin raised her head little by little. In the panic and uneasiness that lasted for a long time and could not be dissipated all day long, through Trundle's words, she seemed to finally be waiting for the response from the person she thought about day and night.
Just like the last sentence written in the unsent letter, Fisher truly said to himself,
